In a class of 80 students, every student studies Mathematics or Geography or both. If 65 students study Mathematics and 50 study Geography, how many study both subjects?

Worked solution (try it first)
  1. Every student studies at least one subject, so n(M∪G)=80n(M \cup G) = 80.
  2. Both subjects: 65+50−80=3565 + 50 - 80 = 35, option B.
